Jacksons Square Shopping Centre

Oh God, what have they done!
Jackson’s square, named after Sir George Jackson, who was one of the founders of the Stort Navigation, was originally built in the 60s, and as such, had the heavy concrete look of the era.
In the late 80s a big refit and revamp was performed, adding a glass roof to the centre, and attempting to make more of a classic piazza feel.
Then there is the recent development. Before my rant, I’ll tell you the good stuff.
Jackson’s Square is pretty central to the town, holds big name chains such as Sainsbury’s, Next, New Look, Superdrug, Starbucks, Peacocks, etc, and a few independent clothes shops as well.
The smoking ban has helped to lift the lingering pong of fags that used to cling to the clothes in Peacocks, and there is no longer a gauntlet of smoking school kids to get past.
The bad news. The new development is hideous, huge, awkward to get to, awkward to park near, looks about as new and glam as the original 60s building did, and generally towers over the rest of the town leaving it in dark shade most day.
Poor old Sir George must be rolling in his grave.
